If you still need Java 6 for Web applets after installing Apple's latest updates, there is a way to restore it and override Apple's preference for the use of Oracle's Java 7.

Last Sunday, another major Java vulnerability (VU#636312) was reported. Until an official update is available, we strongly recommend disabling the Java 7 plug-in for web browsers.

I think it would be great if we could activate Metals for Java plugins, as currently that's not the case and one cannot find and run any of the Metals commands in Java files.
